Ingredients
Method
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8 or 9x9 inch baking pan and line with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a small bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, and any optional spices. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter and sugar, stirring until well blended.
Add eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined; do not overmix. Gently fold in nuts and dried fruit if using.
Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly with a spatula.
Bake for 22–28 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. Do not overbake.
Let brownies cool completely in the pan, then cut into 16 squares and serve.
